This gown, worn by a well knowr, society woman, was made in Amen-.-a on plans of an American designer.

In selecting the decorations for her entertainment ahe first considered her own gown' ing, including the suitability of certain colors to herself .- Her choice fell -upon yellow, and with yellow she aiianged her drawing rooms, . having flowers of yellow with backgrounds of green ferns and foliage, and here and there a cluster of white flowers entered into the arrangement. Her lights were shaded with yellow, and with it all the effect achieved was as much like soft sunshine as could be got;--All ol her plans were so arranged as to set off to advantage herself and her gown- a vertiablo "Sunshine" gown. . , - .

When the war broke out in August the world was positive that there would be no more Paris Fashions. "American Clothes ior American Women" became the . slogan of the day, emphasized and encouraged by dressmakers and manufacturers. . After all was said -and done; how- , ever, tne . eunouette wnicn raris daunched in August is that which has - taken the United States by storm this winter. ' The waist is dose fit ting at the shoulders with a waist line well defined and the short skirt smooth over the hips and flaring at the ankle3. The skirts are usually three-piece, although many are cir cular and some have as many as nine . sores! : But with ail these gores and fulness, they do not look at all like the many gored skirts we wore in the fjirsfewjMMfWsejvturymt UDDear .in their stvle like those skirts and dresses of the Victorian period, witn a "sticK-i-outness ' similar to rue hoop skirts of that day. In fact, some of these dresses have petticoats with a reed run through a casing just above the knees. This 'holds out the fluffy full skirt in a delightful easy manner. .'' ' .
